Patrick McNeil, Patrick Miller, and Aiko Nakagawa are the three original founding members of Faile. Formed in 1999 in Brooklyn New York. They were arrested one night, while pasting work up on the streets, and to mark the event decided to re-arrange the letters of A-Life (their original name) and FAILE was born.
The three artists worked collaboratively using imagery from comic books, yellow pages, and advertising. And although Aiko left in 2006 to pursue her own career. The two Patrick’s still form a formidable street art team. Screen print, stencil, and eventually sculpture and fine art have been the order of things. Lately they have even been carving Indian prayer poles.
